Usually this is the opposite: top computer/desktop apps move to the iPhone. But here Camerabag, one of the top photography iPhone apps is launching now a desktop client

It is only available for mac for now. But it is nicely done.

You can download the desktop version here (free demo $19 otherwise) and the iPhone version on getap.ps/fF

Windows only: The latest version of the popular Rainmeter desktop adds an excellent new tool that makes it easy to manage your library of skins, with previews, detailed setup instructions, and more.

Once you've run through the simple installation process and launched Rainmeter, you'll be presented with the latest Enigma 2.6 desktop, and a quick-start panel that gives you access to all of the option panels easily.

The great new addition is the RainBrowser interface, which makes it easy to preview all of your installed skins, read the installation instructions, access skin settings, and even restart Rainmeter right from the interface.

The full list of changes, as explained by the Rainmeter team:

  • A new utility called RainBrowser helps users manage their library of skins through a GUI interface. RainBrowser lets you preview skins, read detailed setup instructions, and even search by tag. Thanks to the addition of skin metadata, this is something other apps can take advantage of, as well.
  • Taking a cue from HTML5, skins may now use local fonts. This means you can design and download skins with gorgeous fonts without having to fully install them in Windows.
  • Instead of a lot of tedious and repetitive coding, new stylesheets let you customize appearance and settings for many skins at once.
  • Enigma now supports Google Calendar, Yahoo! Weather, Winamp and Foobar right out of the box. New skins also let you monitor your WiFi signal, world clocks, and even the current moon phase (which has been requested surprisingly often).
  • Rainmeter's improved interface lets you middle-click to cycle through a family of skins and launch useful addons from the context menu.
  • Last time, many readers were frustrated by having to add skins to their desktops one-by-one. With the new pre-made Preview Theme, you can make your desktop match the arrangement in the preview screenshot with one click.
  • The instructions have been expanded into a full-sized PDF manual.

The latest changes make Rainmeter not just a powerful desktop customization tool for system themers, but something useful for just about anybody that wants to customize their desktop without a lot of tweaking. Rainmeter is a free download for Windows only.

Sedang khusyu' bekerja tiba2 muncul puluhan aplikasi yang entah dari mana datangnya. Rasanya cuma ada di Windows ya hehehe (kalau di Mac belum pernah ada kejadian tiba2 muncul banyak icon di dock?)
Kalau sudah begini, terpaksa restart PC dan jalan2 ke meja tetangga mencari cemilan. :)

Did you know you can make your Linux desktop anything you want it to be. Make it look like windows, a mac and the list goes on. So theres my current desktop of Ubuntu 9.10.

Mac + Linux at its core.
